* Bug DB usage
** If you are working on a bug, assign it to yourself.
*** add dummy inbox to the cc list.
** Set the target milestone to the correct milestone.
*** Confusion/concern on this part
*** Milestones
**** 1.0M8 are bugs that are to be fixed by the the corresponding milestone build.
**** 1.0 is a bug that is to be fixed by 1.0, but has no current target milestone.
**** 1.0.1 new bugs should be filed against this target

==== 1.0M8 ====
* Milestone release Date - June 4 2008 Final functionality freeze
* 23 Open bugs
* 17 fixed
* Foundation and JPA Status
** Deployment XML rework
*** Bug to merge xml working - clean-up started
* OSGi - Tom

** Wiki - http://wiki.eclipse.org/EclipseLink/Development/EclipseLinkPDEConversionPlan 
** PDE Projects available, eclipselink plugins in maven and jar containing all plug-ins available for download
>Tom 2nd item (PDE) more urgent - wait for a larger meeting audience
>ToM: at some point we want to get everthing into orbit - we need a structure plan for M8
>Orbit = common eclipse repository and share for dependencies
>Example - Ant - we would like a single place to store the version of Ant we are using across projects
>Not everything needs sources
>Action: Tom - send out a link to how we will use Orbit
>Action: Tom: Meeting for OSGI concerning 2nd point PDE - would like to solve in the next day or two
>Tom: There are dependencies such as persistence, activation.jar, also we now have plugins - I would like to ship
>Tom: Q) do we rename the long names? The build is unfixed until we finalize this.
>Tom: No feedback from wiki page sent out to mailing list - no feedback = ok, but we need a decision
>Tom: open bug 221383 - Issue where we have 2 manifests (non-osgi, osgi one) - will deal with it when above build Q) is fixed
>Tom: Action will send out email on closing this bug - silence means all consent

** Discussion
*** Packaging convention for dependancies (i.e. the projects we depend on that are not from Orbit)
**** Do we want a src and bin/classes directory
**** Should classes just exist at the base of the project (what about the jar we eventually create)
**** How should we name the jars we create
*** Packaging dependencies in non-osgi install zip
**** our dependencies are now plugins.  e.g. javax.activation_1.1.0.v200706111329.jar
**** install zip ships with some of these dependencies with shorter current names.  e.g. activation.jar
**** Should we ship the dependencies with the plugin name or rename it to be the shorter name>
** 221383: Move all files in eclipselink.core/resources under src 
* Workbench
>Roger: DDR's worked on, all test passing except for 2  
>- they broke when switching from oracle to MySQL due to project generation - failing on compilation, but copied generated code works fine

** Tested XML and EIS mapping functionality.
**  Able to open of toplink mapping workbench 10.1.3 projects
** Corrected the issue with Cache Synchronization (replaced functionality erroneously removed)
* MOXy, JAXB, SDO - Blaise D
* DBWS - Mike N
>Mike: dbws issue in core - when local build is working i will update the bug
>Mike: some additional work req to figure out out deployment strategy for glassfish

* Build System
>Build System: Acheivment:
>Peter: we now have bootstrap script and all scripts checked into SVN
>Now that the osgi bundles are being added, we see them on the web - need to fix (5 nightly builds) objections?
>Action: Peter This will fix space issues - each bundle is 7mb each - we will do 10 and 10 builds
